Most people don’t realize that the problem is that teenagers simply cannot wake-up that early without enduring health problems. The reason is because of melatonin which is a hormone that induces sleep and tells the body when to go to sleep. But in teenagers, the melatonin does not appear until ten thirty to eleven thirty at night. Because of this later surge of melatonin, teenagers cannot fall asleep until later in the evening making it more difficult to get up for early classes. (Lamberg 1)

It may seem obvious that stress leads to sleep deprivation. The reasoning behind this, however, may not be as obvious for teenagers. Teenagers, it appears become more sensitive to the stimulating effects of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRP) which is a stress releasing hormone. When both young and middle-aged men were administered CRH, the younger men remained awake longer

This leads to the fourth category: impact of sleep deprivation on problems of teenagers, such as those caused by life or family. Emotional problems can create difficulties in getting to sleep and waking on time. The impact from these conflicts is greater because of the lack of sleep. (Florence 3) For example, if faced with a frustrating task, a sleep-deprived teenager is more likely to become angry or aggressive. I couldn’t keep tract all the times that I have been unable to perform some of the simpler tasks on a bad night of sleep. This lack of performance would often lead to me hitting or throwing something and overreacting in almost every way possible. My roommate also acts accordingly after not sleeping enough by snapping at people and provoking them to try to get them as irritable as him.

The second category, tiredness, is a feeling of fatigue or decreased motivation. Tiredness makes tedious tasks more difficult to accomplish and even begin. The more sleep deprived a student, the less motivated he becomes. Tiredness is less evident while performing exciting energetic activities, but conversely it is extremely obvious in tasks deemed boring or repetitious. Tiredness is most problematic when attempting long-term goals, such as reading or studying uninteresting topics, when there is not an immediate consequence. In these cases motivation is not only decreased, but often does not exist. (Freyer 1) As a teacher it is no mystery to you the lack of interest that some students display during an act
